Chapter 49: Chapter 49: Do You Think I’m Easy to Talk To?
Chi Gui: “Continue wasting time here crying, giving others reason to laugh, and accomplish nothing. Or, go back right now and compose another piece, and show Xue Yao what you’re capable of with your strength.”
Su Niannian mumbled subconsciously: “I can’t, I…”
Chi Gui looked at her, her almond-shaped eyes ink-stained and serene, yet carrying an undeniable force: “Could the outcome be any worse than it is now?”
A wake-up call to the person lost in a dream!
She was already at rock bottom, what else was there to worry about?!
“Sister Chi, thank you! I’m going to go back and find inspiration straight away!” Su Niannian hugged Chi Gui tightly once more, then turned and ran off quickly.
Xie Guku watched Su Niannian’s retreating back and hesitated for a moment, but still spoke up: “Sister Chi, about Xue Yao…”
“Don’t worry about it,” said Chi Gui indifferently.
How to discipline Xue Yao was Su Niannian’s task.
All she needed to do was help Su Niannian stand back up.
That evening when Chi Yan got home and while everyone was eating dinner, she mentioned casually: “By the way, didn’t sister drop out of high school? She did go to university…”
“She went to university?” Zhao Yuexiu questioned, “Which university did she attend? How do you know about this?”
Chi Yan recounted the classroom events and said obediently: “Although sister doesn’t know why she was expelled, her foundational skills in her major are very solid…”
“What good is there in being expelled!” Zhao Yuexiu interrupted Chi Yan, stood up holding her phone, “I’ll go ask her what happened!”
What if she was expelled for something particularly bad? If it got out later, what would happen to Yanyan and Ming Kun?
When Chi Gui got home, the robot Little Guai came out of the bedroom and approached her, performing a gentlemanly bow.
In a mechanical and milky voice: “Welcome home, my cute and beautiful Fairy Sister!”
The little guy’s flattery database had updated itself again.
She let Little Guai move around on its own, then went to the kitchen to make dinner.
While she was cooking, her phone rang.
Chi Gui glanced at it, the number already automatically identified by the internal system, displayed as a call from the Chi Family.
Chi Gui considered for a moment, then answered.
Zhao Yuexiu’s reproachful voice immediately came through: “Chi Gui, you were expelled from university? Which university expelled you? For what reason? How exactly did your grandmother teach you, to end up with you turning out ?”
Hearing this, Chi Gui’s gaze turned cold instantly.
She turned off the stove, turned around, and leaned casually against the countertop.
In the old neighborhood, the streetlights below were broken, and it was pitch-black outside.
Chi Gui’s almond eyes gazed out the window indifferently, as if tinged with the darkness, her slender fingers tapping lightly on the countertop. Her voice, light but with an edge, said: “What do you think I am like?”
“You, you…” Zhao Yuexiu was taken aback. ᴜᴘᴅᴀᴛᴇ ꜰʀᴏᴍ novel⟡fire.net
Chi Gui’s voice was still calm and cool, so why did she feel such inexplicable pressure?
Chi Gui said indifferently: “Zhao Yuexiu, I’ve been courteous to you—do you think that means I’m easy to talk to?”
As she heard her name spoken directly, Zhao Yuexiu’s heart skipped a beat.
But before she could gather her thoughts, Chi Gui continued: “I’m saying this one last time, don’t bother me. I’ve put up with you because I promised someone I would cultivate my character and be a good person.”
After that, Chi Gui hung up the phone right away.
She had no intention of waiting for Zhao Yuexiu’s response, just wanted to inform her.
Zhao Yuexiu held the phone, speechless for a long while.
Seeing Zhao Yuexiu with a troubled expression after making a phone call, Chi Yan approached cautiously and asked: “Mom, what’s wrong?”
Chi Changjing and Chi Mingkun also put down their bowls and looked towards her.
Zhao Yuexiu frowned and said nothing, but she couldn’t shake the feeling that Chi Gui… had an air of inviolable authority about her?
